UKGPL Season 21 (2011) Novices (65) - Silverstone (GP 1952-73) - Jun 14

[maddog]

Things did not start well for me, at Silverstone.  My car's get up and go, seemed to have got up and gone, and I had to thrash some life back into it, to avoid being a tail ender.

Things improved after the opening scuffle, as I moved up from 8th, to 4th, in the first lap.  Norbert lay ahead in his fast Ferrari.  But as I jinked to his inside at Becketts, to undertake him, I was out jinxed by the Server, when his car suddenly disappeared !  The warping would get worse for a spell. Meanwhile, this sudden strangeness, made my car jump the curb in surprise.  Without hesitation, the curb flung it back across Norbert's nose . . . where he'd inconveniently reappeared to receive my greeting . . . grumble! 

I recovered, managing to chase down Fabio, who seemed less than enthusiastic at my being there.  We commenced a good scrap, which included some dancing lessons from our Server.  Then banged wheels once or twice, before he over-rotated at Club, and I was suddenly 2nd !  So there I stayed, keeping a brief, but constant gap back to Norm, and later Jonnie O, in 3rd.

A dominating win by Cookie, and a rather pleased 2nd placer.  Much unfulfilled promise from Fabio, and Karliss, with his incredible speed.  The good thing is, there's always another race, just around the corner.

Even if there is warp it does not always mean that a penalty will not be issued as in this case.

If you're using 7zp then you can change the format to zip, rar or a few others.

I also think, and stand to be corrected, that if the clip is short enough you can attached an uncompressed replay file.

OK thank you ,in this case was short .The warp was at the third curve.Must i send the replay or the penalty is without appeal?

Well normally we don't allow in new evidence after the fact ie you cannot submit a client replay when you chose not to do so during the reporting process. However, it is appreciated you did have issues sending it originally so, as an exception, if you do Appeal I will look at it. Please note, in future, client replays MUST be submitted during the incident reporting period. If you are having difficulties attaching it try a different zip format or make sure it is short enough to just attach the actual replay clip itself.

Accordingly yes you can appeal by sending me a PM and stating the reasons why you think the decision was wrong. When making your decision on whether to do this please bear in mind Mike's comments in the moderation as I can see he makes mention of warp. Our rules relating to warp incidents are here and I recently put a note here in the announcements section on this subject which gives some further advice as to how matters are treated.
